SAN ANTONIO —
LeBron James refused to use it as an excuse.

James scored just 19 points on 6 of 18 shooting in the Miami Heat’s loss to the San Antonio Spurs Thursday, but said the poor performance may have been a result of his uniform. Both teams wore the NBA’s new sleeve jerseys.

“I’m not making excuses,” James said. “I’m not a big fan of the jerseys, not a big fan of them. I’ve got to figure something out the next time I wear the short-sleeved jerseys.”

James will not have to worry about the jerseys, with this being the last game this season the Heat wear them. He said the sleeve jerseys affected his jumpshot because of the tight fit.

“I already don’t have much room for error on my jumpers,” James said.

The cacs hate his tattoos.

Very soon they would force long sleeves jerseys

 

[Mr. Brown]

He's 3-29 on shots outside the paint in the sleeved jerseys between the Christmas game, All-Star game and last night.

If they have to wear them again next year, he needs to wear a bigger size.

 

[Newzz]

1-19 on jump shots over the past 2 games?

Gotta love prefacing a statement by saying you aren't gonna do what you end up doing. He really needs to shut the fukk up sometimes.

The faces of the league should have the balls to where the uniforms the way he wants and eat the fines

Jordan wore his shoes, Kobe, Sheed, Shaq, AI snd KG wore the long shorts with no fukks given. I think Stern hit the Marbury and KG and Atge T-Wolves like 40k one time

The league came through with dat basketball design change and the players hit 'em wit the

If Bronze and 'em don't wanna wear those ugly ass t-shirts, then don't
